I was scouting out a neighbors yard this morning. Came across this green bottle. It was hidden under some heavy brush.

From my search it appears this bottle was made in the late 1930s to mid 1940s. St Joseph Aspirine. I am surprised the cap is still intact. I believe I will soak the attached cap in olive oil for a while and leave as is. If I try to remove the cap it may crack.

Those colored bottles are so much better looking than the clear one. Display it proudly.

I've never found one of those before, I've found a few of the older Bayer aspirin but they were clear and had a tin cap. Cool find :cool:

In certain circles those old colored glass medicine jars bring good money!

a very unusual color for a medicine bottle Beartoe , I don't have one of those but I do have an old bayer aspirin and an old asorbine Jr. bottles.
